2TB works fine But 3TB does not.

Hi Babbies,
The largest drive validated on that system was 500GB, but a larger drive should be possible. Keep in mind that not all newer SATA drives are backward compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s, which is what you have in there.

Hi Osprey,
Thank you for the quick reply. Is there anything in the specs on the new HDs that will tell me if they are 3 Gb/s. Do you have any recommendations on drives? Thanks again for your help.

Any drive will specify the SATA standard. I have no favorite brand. They're all about the same.
